The Trump campaign, on its website Thursday, announced Mobile as part of the ongoing "Thank You" tour. The rally is scheduled for 3 p.m. on Saturday, Dec. 17, at Ladd-Peebles Stadium. Gates open at 11 a.m.

Trump's rally will take place inside the same location as his Aug. 21, 2015, campaign rally which was attended by a large crowd during the early portions of his campaign. The Mobile rally was viewed as one of the campaign's earliest successes, and was a preview of future stadium-style rallies to come.

Vic Knight, general manager of the stadium, said he believes it's the first time that the 68-year-old venue has hosted a president or president-elect.

"For the facility, it's historic and it's exciting," he said.

Knight said that stadium and city officials will meet next week to hammer out details on parking, logistics and security-related matters.
